Ariel Scrogham 10/17/2016 1:41 PMI like to shower every day and enjoy my 5 minute showers 4 days a week! I once read that we don't need to wash our entire body everyday, only the areas emitting BO, and that our skin has effective ways of cleaning itself. I feel good knowing that i'm saving some H2O!
